Bay Equity Holdings LLC

Founded in 2007 and headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, Bay Equity Holdings LLC (operating as Bay Equity Home Loans) was a family-owned, direct-to-consumer mortgage lender. The company was dedicated to providing a wide range of home financing products, including conventional, FHA, VA, and jumbo loans. Its mission centered on streamlining the mortgage process through technology and a commitment to high-touch customer service. In April 2022, Bay Equity was acquired by Redfin to become its mortgage arm, Redfin Mortgage. However, due to shifting market conditions, Redfin announced the closure of its mortgage and iBuying divisions in November 2022, effectively ending the operations of what was formerly Bay Equity.
